The word tomme implies that a cheese is made from the milk of more than one herd. Tomme de Savoie is made by an expert cheesemaker and is always of exceptional quality. It has a beautifully rustic, gray-brown, fuzzy, inedible, thick rind. The cheese inside is robust with slight overtones of salt and an unmistakably raw flavor. This French, unpasteurized cow's milk cheese has a charming simplicity. It is absolutely wonderful paired with sausages, fruit, bread, and wine. All the good things in life!

I have served this cheese several times for wine tastings and it's always great quality and very flavorful.

Robust, nicely flavorful

A little bit on the robust side, favorful, non-stinky raw cow, a great snack cheese.

The embodiment of

Powerfully delicious. And succulent, toothsome, deeply resonant,...
I'll resist the temptation to wax on. I'm wishing I'd purchased more while it was on sale. My new favorite.

Very strong

Very strong flavor. Not for new french cheese eaters.

Excellent quality as always

This order of Tomme de Savoie arrived in excellent condition as always. I have been a customer of igourmet.com for 10 years or so and am almost always completely satisfied and if I am not for what ever reason, the staff here at igourmet.com makes it right. The only negative thing I can say is that the cheese comes pre packaged in (2) 8 oz. packages and in the comment section of my order I asked that the cheese be sent as 1 whole piece. not a big deal though.

Not bad

The texture was a bit weird, like chewy. It didn't taste very strong. It wasn't bad, it wasn't amazing neither.

Love these cheeses

First tasted Comte and Tomme in Switzerland. Cheeses arrived a little late due to all the snow we've been having lately. Both were big hits at the Super Bowl party I attended. Both cheeses were superb. Thank you igourmet.

A French Favorite

One of the surprise niceties is that it is not a fatty cheese,and that its flavors and texture are easily appealing.
